Tesla sees big future selling its electric cars in China

Tesla Motors’ Elon Musk said sales of electric Model S cars in China should match U.S. levels as early as next year, with demand from the world’s largest auto market eventually requiring a local plant. The electric-car maker said Thursday that the Model S will be priced from $121,280 in China when deliveries begin. For Tesla, “it could be as big as the U.S. market, maybe bigger. I don’t want to get overexcited about it,” Musk said.
